💫 In this episode, I cover:

.Ashwagandha — the root that rebuilds: adaptogen for stress, sleep, and nervous system support.

.Turmeric — the golden healer: anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and metabolic ally.

.Milk Thistle — guardian of the liver: gentle detox support and cellular protector.

✨ Key Takeaways:

.Herbs are not quick fixes — they’re long-term allies that rebuild resilience.

.Traditional use and modern research often meet beautifully when we look closely.

.The right form, dose, and rhythm matter just as much as the herb itself.
